Green & Green/Blacker House Mesquite chairs-This chair known as a Green & Green “Blacker House”style has Turquiose inlayed into the cracks and Wenge used as accents. This chair was made to go with the Mesquite Barrell “Stave” table. The clients picked out their own fabric to go with their other home furnishings.

Good looking chair(s). The joinery on the arm rest looks interesting as well as attractive.

Scott,
I note with considerable interest the Green and Green design influence. Nice details and nice touch. If you’re interested, check out the green and green yahoo group. I’m a member. Max

Top notch woodworking! The green is a great contrast.
I Guessing since no one else is asking, I’m the only one that hasn’t seen or knows what the green is. What exactly is it and how do you apply it?

Is that real turquoise? Is it ground and then mixed with some kind of epoxy? how do you level it with the wood?

Scott,
That is sweet! Did you do the inlay? I want to try one of the Blacker chairs but I am afraid it would take me 100 years to plan it before I cut any wood. Your work is feeding the obsession!

Great looking chairs. They have a nice flow at the arms. And the Greene & Greene accents at the seat/legs
